32 F here. I have squishmellows and stuffed animals all over my bed because I think its cute. I love hello kitty. I have a hello kitty badge at work and my boss low key/high key made fun of me for it. So it's a problem if I have a cute badge at work? I sometimes buy “cute/childish” stuff like that, I got excited and showed my mom some hello kitty stuff and she dismissed it and went “you’re a baby”

I don’t get it why does what I’m into trigger people? I can spend my hard earned money on anything I want. Why does it concern them?

Long story short I’m an only child with widow mother. I got a new job, moved out of the house for the first time. Literally 3 days later my mom gets a major stroke. She was in the nursing home for a few months then we found a 24/7 live in caregiver in exchange for free rent for my mom. He lives with her in my aunt’s building. Anyway this is an insane life adjustment for me since my mom was just like you and me before the stroke. Walking, talking. Now she is bed bound, can only say a few words and will obviously never been the same. I don’t have much family support only my aunt how who I was never close with since he bullied me in my childhood, but I have no other choice shes the only one I have now so we grin and bear seeing each other for my mom. I just feel like is this my life? Just going to work (and I have to pick up shifts since there was expenses that insurance doesn’t cover so that’s extra money I have to pay for mom’s care). Then going to visit mom which is hard anyway since I’m exhausted from work and I live about 30 mins away. I have no friends, no life really. Just work, see mom and focus on her physical therapy, her medications, her food, her doctors appointments this and that. I feel like my life is just over and it’s like living a nightmare I can’t get out of every single day
